September is almost here the summer has gone by so fast . I know that summer isn't over yet we will still have some nice weather but the weather will start to change, kids go back to school and once again things start up again.
When I was a kid this time of year meant back to the early mornings, school and some anxiety about being in a new class and having to leave the comforts of home. I looked forward to seeing friends and getting new school clothes and supplies but there was always that dread of going back to school - no more sleep overs during the week or going swimming all day.
Now that I am older it is a time for things to start up the normal schedule and this year something new - I will start my masters classes. I am excited about all the new things I will learn through these classes. I know there will be times that stress will replace the excitement and that is ok. It is also a time that things cool down and I can wear my comfy pajamas and snuggle up to watch TV with Kevin or read a good book. It means that we will be going to the Pumpkin farm soon and we will take Payton around to trick or treat for the first time.
As a teacher this time of year is exciting - getting ready for a new class, meeting them and seeing what kind of class they are - there are field trips and birthdays and holidays to celebrate. It is fun and exciting.
It is a time to be renewed by God and to remember that I can't do anything with out his help. I know school with tough at time and that the house work won't all get done but with God's help I can get done what I need to - I will get through it,I will come out on top .
